The museum offers school groups the chance to descend down the original shaft alongside real ex-miners to find out first hand what working life was like for the generations of men who worked at the coal face. In this programme you can find out how Pupils from City Academy Bristol prepared for the visit the museum as part of their Key Stage 3 History project. In addition to industrial history, the trip has cross-curricular links allowing students to enhance their knowledge of geography, science and citizenship.
